The paper identifies an expansion of SUMO protease genes in cultivated rice, suggesting selective breeding pressure may drive this expansion and its potential role in stress responses.

This study creates the first complete SUMO Cell Atlas in eukaryotes, revealing how SUMO components vary spatially and are regulated during stress responses in Arabidopsis roots.

The paper shows ROS-induced IAA3/SHY2 multimerization regulates auxin responses during xerobranching and lateral root emergence in plants.

The paper develops a pan-gene catalogue for Asian cultivated rice by creating a reference panel of 16 cultivars and identifying core and cultivar-specific genes.
